so I had to admit to my councilor that I have a bizarre addiction, and addiction of books. Per say checking out too many books that I don't end up getting through from the library.

But even though I am never racked to the core about admitting to my addiction, but I am working toward getting it better. Already starting to work through books in the house and getting them back to the library and setting a limit of books for myself from the library from now on.

I know its not average but its still an addiction and its a hard thing for me to admit too. But I am glad I am working on this issue in my life.

I am an addict to many other things but I guess I never thought about books as being an addiction. As I read your post, I realized I do the same thing. Matter of fact I have a BIG fine at the library because I had out way to many books and I didn't get them returned on time...so I guess that I am glad you posted that, as I have learned something about myself today and maybe I will have to try some of your goals.

Wow! Me three. I have a kindle with 600+ books on it. Many were free or .99 cents, and I'm really bad about starting 4 books at a time. Sometimes I never finish them and I'm on meds for adhd!

Thanks for sharing,

TnT
